CERTIFIED STRAWBERRY PLANTS 
The Mullins strawberry plants have been certified this season by the Tenn. 
Dept. of Agriculture Regulatory Division, assuring you of plants free of disease 
and insect pests and free of mixtures of varieties. NO BETTER PLANTS CAN BE HAD! 
PLANTS SCARCE! MOST NURSERIES SOLD OUT!! 
Due to.lack of rain this summer and fall there is a great shortage of straw- 
berry plants. Most nurseries have been sold out for some time, and Mr. Mullins 
would be sold out if he had not reserved what he had left for us some time ago. 
On Sep 26 he wrote: “The man who was here from Florida bought 2,200,000 
plants. A large Arkansas nurseryman was here and bought 3,500,000 plants and 
another one from Arkansas bought 1,000,000.’"’ On Oct 2 he wrote: “People here 
have really gone wild. Most of them are sold out and are offering higher prices 
than they sold for. Some have committed themselves for more than they have and 
are trying to buy them.’? On Oct 27 he wrote: “Just returned from a four day con- 
ference at Memphis. Found a bushel of strawberry mail when I returned. If I had 
the plants this year I could feather my nest.” 
KLONDIKES SCARCE! ORDER NOW! ! ‘“‘FIRST COME, FIRST SERVED!!!” 
Our supply of Klondikes still unsold is now less than 100,000 plants. 
ORDER NOW IF YOU WANT ANY! The man from whom Mr. Mullins got his original 
stock of Klondike reported that his Klondike outyielded Blakemore alongside 
them, which is the reverse of the usual rule in Tennessee. DON’T YOU WANT 
THIS HIGH YIELDING STRAIN? 
‘“‘TOPRANKING SUPPLIERS OF STRAWBERRY PLANTS” 
A man in Oahu, Hawaii, wrote a few days ago: “I am indebted to Mr. W. 
Evans of Evans & Reeves (leading nurserymen) for referring me to you as top- 
ranking suppliers of strawberry plants.” 
“BEST EVERBEARING STRAWBERRY IE HAVE SEEN YET” 
A Seattle, Wash., man, in ordering some Streamliner plants, said: “My 
neighbor set out 100 plants from you last spring and they have done very well, 
the best everbearing strawberry I have seen yet, they are still bearing at this 
lagtemaate.” .1(Uct 25° 1947) 
$2,400.00 FROM AN ACRE OF STREAMLINER 
On Oct 17 1947 a Calistoga grower wrote: “Have you any Streamliner straw- 
berry plants? The crop of-berries from the acre I planted brought me in 
$2,400.00 this year. Everyone here is asking me for plants.’’ 
‘“STREAMLINER EVERYTHING CLAIMED FOR THEM” . 
A Roscoe customer wrote Nov 11 1946: “The Streamliner strawberry plants 
I bought from you last spring are everything claimed for them. Still picking 
fine berries.”
